#Human Rights Day
A call to action - No implementation of human rights in the Universal Human Rights Declaration without human rights defenders.

This 10th December marks a double important Anniversary, as we celebrate the 20 years since the adoption of the UN Declaration on Human Rights Defenders and the 70th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
This is what some members of OMCT Executive Council and fellow human rights defenders say on this special Anniversary: 
Olga Sadovskaya (Russia)

Aminata Dieye (Senegal)
Hina Jilani, OMCT President (Pakistan)
Mokhtar Trifi, OMCT Vice-President (Tunisia)
Henri Tiphagne (India)

#International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women

This video shows three women human rights defenders (HRDs) from Guatemala, Peru and Canada.

The Human Rights Defenders World Summit - Paris

#WeAreAllDefenders

The Human Rights Defenders World Summit 2018 has celebrated the achievements of the last 20 years and looked forward to the next two decades. 
It is the main goal of this Summit that, 20 years from now, in 2038, a new generation of HRDs will look back and see this event as marking the transition to a new paradigm to approaching the security and protection of HRDs.

Watch the video "Change the World. Protect Human Rights Defenders".
The HRDs World Summit photo-reportage is available here.

The Summit has been organised by eight international human rights organisations (Amnesty International, Awid, FIDH, FrontLine Defenders, ISHR, the OMCT, ProtectDefenders.eu and Reporters Without Borders).
